I'm sure I'll look stupid for saying this two days from now but I do think Joshua has stepped up too big too early against Klitschko. Even at 41 Wlad would probably beat out 95% of heavyweights without problems.

Personally im inclined to see he's washed and AJ does the deed by the 5th round. Cut to a rapturous Wembley Stadium interspersed with many shots of a crying Hayden Panitierre.

And surely, surely, fighting as a contender rather than the reigning champ will light a fire that reforges the steel hammer?

He's said something to this effect in interviews. being a challenger is much more freeing then being a defender trying to break Joe Louis's record

I can really see this going either way.

Maybe i should try to get out of work early to watch this

I have notably bad opinions about boxing, and agree.

I'm watching Frazier Ali II and it is such a mindfuck seeing OJ Simpson pop up between rounds:

the main event isn't for another hour and 40 mins and the co-main is about to start. terrible pacing from a boxing card yet again

I don't get the appeal of going to see this fight live - especially for the bulk of fans out in the nosebleeds - how could you even see the action without binoculars? Or if you just end up watching on the big screen why not just watch at home or at a bar where you're a bit more comfortable and aren't blowing as much money?

Got off work, hurried home, I'm hyped to see the main event. I wanna be excited by heavy weights again, either from a young again Wlad or something like a real start to a new Era. Symbolism I know but it's a narrative I'm sold on.

Decent scrap on the undercard but empty seats everywhere, people must still be doing coke in the toilets

They never sell as many tickets as they claim, they all get snapped up by touts and go straight onto stubhub, it's a real racket. Saying that you'd expect it to fill up far more than it is at the moment by the main event
